Book Description
One of the major responsibilities of education is that of helping individuals of all ages to be more effective members of homes and of families. Whatever the goals of a society, the family can be and usually is the most effective agency for inculcating those goals and for transmitting them from one generation to the next. The school should supplement and complement the home in its guidance of the child. This means joint parent-teacher responsibility, the teacher understanding the influences playing upon the child in the home, and the parents understanding the school's efforts to help the child realize his greatest potentialities. - Foreword.

The Leader in Me

Pages : 218
Book Description
Children in today's world are inundated with information about who to be, what to do and how to live. But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students. The parents reported an incredible change in their children, who blossomed under the programme. By the end of the following year the average end-of-grade scores had leapt from 84 to 94. This book will launch the message onto a much larger platform. Stephen R. Covey takes the 7 Habits, that have already changed the lives of millions of people, and shows how children can use them as they develop. Those habits -- be proactive, begin with the end in mind, put first things first, think win-win, seek to understand and then to be understood, synergize, and sharpen the saw -- are critical skills to learn at a young age and bring incredible results, proving that it's never too early to teach someone how to live well.
